    I phone update

    Just updates mine and I'm annoyed already. It screwed up my wallpaper setting and the resizing doesn't function right when I try to set them back up. My Freemasonry HD

    Prince Hall and Mainstream Freemasonry

    I by no means condone the actions by some of the brothers in the so called "mainstream" lodges but I believe the one main sticking point that some claim is that "PHA lodges where never permitted by their original charter to create new lodges" still holds back the PHA fraternity. Not saying I...

    Dating an Eastern Star..

    Does the Easter Star have the same rules as Freemasonry. Such as does a women have to seek the light or can one that you know meet the requirements be " recruited"? Freemason Connect HD

    Freemasonry on Top Gear

    Why does the host Jeramy also associate Masonry with the Lexus brand of cars? I have seen him mention it on 2 different episodes. Freemason Connect HD

    What does the "Checkered Pavement" Symbolize?

    I'd be interested in hearing why you think that if you could expand on your thoughts in either a post or PM. Depending on your thoughts on where and when Masonry started one could say the knights used it first. Not advocating one theory over another, I happen to believe the true origins of...

    What does the "Checkered Pavement" Symbolize?

    Just to bring up another point for discussion. What do you think of the idea that the black and white tiled floor came from the colors of the Knights Templar Flag? Which really has about the same meaning, good and evil, without the thrashing floor reference. Freemason Connect HD

    Two Scariest Lies in Our World Right Now

    I'm only going to comment on the 1st "Lie". That is that we are told we are all good when it's not true. I can't speak for anyone else but I don't buy his lie. Stating that we are all bad as per 2 bible verses. I know that I am a good person, not because anyone as told me so but because of what...

    What was your first position?

    The first chair I filled was as Inner Guard and then as Senior Deacon. Both in Canada Lodge in Afghanistan. We are so short on MM that it is nothing for a brother to show up to his first meeting and be a warden or deacon. Freemason Connect HD

    Which finger do you wear your ring on and why?

    Your Ring http://www.masonsoftexas.com/showthread.php?t=18289 Check out the thread "your ring". I wear mine on my right ring finger since to wear it on the other hand it looks like a wedding band. The which way to point the compass is debated on that thread as well. I just bought a ring with...

    Canadian Lodge at KAF, Afghanistan.

    Sorry I didn't respond sooner. I checked the thread you posted and I believe the craft is illegal in Saudi as well. Sounds like Jordan would be his best bet. Freemason Connect HD

    What do you do with your phone during lodge meetings?

    Re: What do you do with your phone during lodge me I used to leave it in the car, now I just turn it to silent. When any event or meeting is being discussed I use my calendar to keep track of the events. Freemason Connect HD

    Your Ring

    I was all set to get a finger tattoo on my ring finger. I have to take my ring off on occasion when I work so I liked the idea of having a finger tattoo that my ring would cover but then would be easier seen with the ring off. The tattoo artist I talked to said the the work I wanted was too...

    Music in Lodge

    Just curious to see what everyone's thoughts were on music in the lodge. When do you use it, (during rituals, voting, to fill time?). And if so what music do you use? I've heard Mozart did a few pieces for his lodge plus the magic flute piece. Freemason Connect Mobile

    FM a She?

    I'm not exactly sure but I think it's for easier understanding. If you used "he" for the lodge it might get confusing since "he" could refer to a brother or god. Also the term "mother lodge",the lodge that "raised" you is used often so I think that is wear the "she" comes from. Freemason...
